How it works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first, so you know exactly what we’re doing. We protect the surfaces around the joints before any work begins. The work generally takes a couple of hours for one bath or shower, or most of a day for a full bathroom and kitchen. Somewhere as small as Bovingdon Green, access is often the only tricky part. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We protect the area and cut out all of the old sealant.
- Next, the joint is cleaned and any mould is treated.
- Once it’s dry, any bath is filled so the bead is laid with it at its heaviest.
- A single bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone is applied and tooled smooth.
- Finally we tidy up and explain the cure time before we leave.
Preparing for the visit

- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Advice
Bathroom resealing in Bovingdon Green, done properly
Showers work their sealant harder than baths. Tray edges, screen profiles and wet room joints all rely on silicone to stay watertight. Each gets a bead of anti-fungal sanitary silicone, finished smooth so water drains away rather than collecting. Typical jobs include a joint torn by a bath that flexes and two layers of silicone, both failing, across baths, wet rooms and sinks & splashbacks.
Homes around Bovingdon Green are mostly houses and cottages rather than flats, some with bathrooms tucked into older rooms or extensions. The work is the same as anywhere: old material cut out, joints cleaned and a fresh finish laid.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we’ll sort it.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different trade:
- Loose or hollow tiles, or failed tanking behind them
- A bath or tray that moves because it isn’t properly supported
- Cracks in the tray itself rather than the joint

Your questions about bathroom resealing in Bovingdon Green
Do you work for landlords with property near Marlow station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. You can phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before we start.
Do you work in hotels near Bovingdon Green?
Yes. Hotel and guest-house work is part of what we do. Jobs can be programmed room by room, with out-of-hours working possible to arrange.
Is it OK to put new sealant on top of the old bead?
No, never. A bead laid over old silicone soon starts to come away, because silicone does not bond to silicone. Every trace of the old bead is removed first.
Will the old sealant be removed?
Yes, every time. New silicone does not stick to old silicone, so the joint is cleaned back first.
Do you do kitchens as well as bathrooms?
Yes. Kitchen joints get extra degreasing before the new bead goes on, then we reseal in a colour to suit.
What information do you need?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few pictures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and you will get one quote.
Can I choose the colour of the sealant?
We can use white, clear or a colour to suit. On a worktop we colour-match where the joint shows.
Common problems we fix in Bovingdon Green
Sealing over old silicone is one of the commonest mistakes we find. New silicone won’t bond to old silicone, so it peels, leaks and hides mould behind it.
It’s worth asking for a quote if you see:
- Two layers of silicone, both failing
- Mouldy sealant that has gone black
- Gaps where the bath or tray has moved
- Failed sealant on the screen profile
Schools such as Spinfield School are buildings too, and washroom and kitchen sealant there needs the same care as at home, and schools and businesses are part of our work as well as homes.
What your quote should include
- What happens if the job turns out different
- How long to leave it before use
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
- Whether you can choose the colour
DIY sealant or a professional job?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: take out all the old sealant, make sure the joint is clean and dry, and give it the full cure time. If it fails, we can still redo it.

Different surfaces, different methods
Wet rooms
Wet room floors move slightly as they’re used, so the corners need a flexible seal, not grout. Cracked grout in a corner can be cut out and replaced with silicone.
Baths
The long joint down the side of a bath is where most leaks start, particularly where there’s a shower over the bath. We finish it with a single, even bead of anti-fungal silicone, tooled so water cannot sit on it.
Bathroom resealing around Bovingdon Green
Hard water is the norm across most of the South East, so limescale builds up on sealant, grout and fittings, and it has to be cleaned off before new sealant goes in. Bovingdon Green has hotels and guest accommodation nearby. Hotel bathrooms are part of our work as well as homes, and can be done room by room.
Letting a property close to Marlow station? Then mouldy sealant is one of the first things a new tenant notices, so it’s worth renewing between lets. If you live in an older home near Congregational Church, older homes can move a little, which is hard on rigid grout and tired sealant.

Looking after it afterwards
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Keep bottles off the sealant line
- Run the extractor fan during and after every shower
- Avoid abrasive pads on the sealant
- Clean with a mild bathroom cleaner and a soft cloth
Treat the new bead gently when you clean: warm soapy water and a soft cloth do the job. Avoid scouring pads and anything sharp, because a damaged bead gives mould a foothold.
Each shower pushes a little more water through a failed joint. Over time that water reaches floors, walls and ceilings. Early resealing closes the gap before damage is done.
